Features

Lightness: for the same thickness offers greater stiffness and up to 65% lower weight compared to the Okoume Marine Plywood Commonly employed for the same applications (above 28 mm)
Weight from 3.90 kg/m² (in 16 mm configuration)
Excellent durability In high humidity and salinity environments
Excellent dimensional stability, Maintains a considerable degree of flatness and is not subject to twisting
It offers a good thermal insulation
Excellent stiffness
The core layer made of polyethylene terephthalate cellular foam. PET Is not hygroscopic, thus does not absorb water or ambient humidity
Eco-friendly: PET is a recycled, recyclable and environmentally sustainable polymer: it is a material with a very low environmental impact. It is a closed-cell thermoplastic material and has excellent resistance to high temperatures (up to 150° C). It does not deform or alter its structure.
The panel is supplied already squared and sanded

Composition

Composed of outer faces (skins) of Okoume Marine Plywood
Face quality (surface layers): B/BB
Cellular foam core of polyethylene terephthalate, known as PET
Gluing with melamine adhesive in Class 3 (See Specifications)

Technical information

The parts in Okoume are manufactured in compliance with NF CTB-X exterior plywood standards. They have obtained the CE marking for structural use in external environment, according to EN 13896 standards.
Depending on the specifics, Isomar™ can be requested with mixed FSC or FSC 100% certified Okoumè Plywood faces.
The bonding of the compensated Okoumè used are in Class 3 – E1, therefore resistant to boiling and ideal for external uses; are carried out according to EN 314.2.

Nota Bene - Class E0

Isomar™ can be made with NAF adhesive on request: formaldehyde-free bonding that enables emission values well below the requirements of the standard.upon request.
